  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

125-200cc Pipe Protruding......

My first real ride on my "10 WR125 was without a doubt, the best experience I have ever had in my dirtbikin' days....EVER.

With that said I only have one thing to mention (ask):
Has anyone else found that the pipe protrudes too much and impairs the boot to pedal performance just a bit? I ask this because (like I mentioned in my yee-haa post) I ride with my knees in contact w/both sides of my tank @bottom, and the pipe makes contact (quite noticable) with the inside of my right boot (Sidi) causing me to over shoot the pedal once in a while.:excuseme:

This is only noticable when riding standing!

Thanks. And sorry if this issue was already mentioned. :cheers:
 
Could it be that my knees squeeze the tank because my thighs are the size of a big turkeys' and maybe big legs don't have this problem! Anyways.... just thought i'd put it out there...

I can see where the inside pad screws of my boot are rubbing on the pipe.

PS: I am talking about the 2010 wr 125 with revised pipe and silencer....with the rear shock resevoir mounted horizontally, agreed?
 
Not an issue for me but I think I squeeze the bike a bit further back than you, my knees pinch it right where the side gas tank bolts are or an inch or two ahead of that.
